It isn't even close too Keyboard and mouse. Well seriously, the only overrated part about Halo is its campaign, its utter garbage. But the online is where it really shines. I would dare say its the best Multiplayer game of this gen.
How is it? It's not. The general concensus is that it's one of the greatest franchises of all time. End of story.
Some people like to criticise what they can't have.
it's not overrated. maybe a littleI'm having a blast with the game either way
Jealousy is always the case.
By means of the first few words you uttered: ''Easily the best.''

Halo is not the best and never will be the best. Timesplitters took the console FPS crown from Perfect Dark and kept true console shooters alive and well.

[/QUOTE] The game controls so well on a pad compared to pretty much any other FPS on a console, it's controls are even good for a PC standard. Plus KB/M isn't the end all/be all. alot of people prefer using a controller.
Popular and very highly rated games will pretty much always be called overrated by some.

Generally people ''prefer'' gamepads when they haven't spent much time with the keyboard and mouse for shooters.

It controls so well on a console it rivals PC FPSes? What exactly are you trying to say?
One its on xbox/360. ANy game that comes to the that platform as an exclsuive is consider overrated.Two its a FPS which so PC guys will downplay it because it console gamers will put it on par with pc games.Three it sells well and is a AAA franchise.
the analog stick will never bee as good as the keyboard and mouse, and no, it is not the best online game, i believe more people play CoD 4 now.
IMO Halo series are not overrated! Maybe Halo2 a little bit
Because the amount of hype compared to the WoW when actually playing makes alot of people say it's overrated. I've never once said WoW that's amazing.. while playing halo.
as for the good controls: that would be the autoaim.As for Halo being overrated, well I think since it's extremely popular, a lot of ''non-conformist'' types hate it simply because of that reason-it's very popular. I personally think it's an average shooter. While halo 3 does have a good lobby system, the gameplay is too simple for my tastes.
